"Gonna Get My Picture On The Cover...Gonna Buy 5 Copies For My Mother!" - AR Blogger On Cover of Rolling Stone!

Well, maybe not the cover....and it wasn't Rolling Stone either. (Gotta be honest here - disclosure, you know) But I did get an article about real estate published. In a magazine. With pages & everything...real ads even!

Cover photo of Arizona Gourmet Living's spring 2009 issueBack in January, Arizona Gourmet Living magazine asked me to write an article about real estate for their spring issue. Having just finished research for a blog post about the fall in prices allowing "Average Joe" to buy a home, I figured that fleshing out this thought a little further would be a good idea.

I wanted to produce a market report that told the story of how the declining market was actually helping first-time homebuyers, instead of the usual moaning about the drop in prices: showing how regular people can actually benefit from today's real estate conditions.

Hopefully, I will be asked to write more pieces for them or another magazine - it sure makes Mom proud to see that her early years teaching english wasn't completely lost on her son! Guess I'll be famous in about 5 years when this issue hits the doctors' offices, huh?
